Here are the Top 3 job questions recently answered by Jobfox:

  1. In this economy, how do you respond to questions about salary history and salary requirements? I don't want my answers to hurt my chances of getting the job.
  2. Are job seekers who are currently unemployed at a disadvantage when their submittals are being reviewed by HR? In other words, are job seekers who were released as part of a 'reduction in force' (e.g.), still considered as somehow 'tainted'?"
  3. How do you respond to the interview question, "If you are given an assignment that needs to go out the same day, and then two more supervisors give you an assignment that has to go out the same day, how do you handle these requests?"

No matter where you find answers to your job questions, it is important to keep the following things in mind to ensure you are receiving the best answers:

  1. The source of the information and their role in the employment process. This information will help you evaluate how credible their information is and whether or not it is relevant to your job search.
  2. The date the information was published. Most articles will provide a published date at the top of the page or a last updated date at the bottom of the page. This helps determine whether the information is new enough to be applicable to your current job search.
  3. Use more than one source. Everyone has different experiences. Reading information on the same topic from different sources will allow you to receive more complete answers to your job questions.
